I currently work full time so I will be away for about 8-10 hours a day. I would be able to check in on your pet before I head to work and stay with them afterwards. I would stay with them longer on Thursday,Saturday, and Sunday. We can talk about the exact times upon sitting requests. I enjoy meeting new people and animals, having new clients is exciting. My schedule consists of meeting new clients, drop in visits and pet sitting. If I am taking care of your pet I would only be away while I am at work. I will very communicative if anything arises.

Safety, trust & environment

I am currently unable to care for pets in my home but I will gladly take care of them in your home. While I am in your home I will clean after myself and your pets. Respect and communication are very important for me. While staying in your home I will ensure you get daily updates and photos. I will immediately reach out if I suspect your kitty seems sick or not acting like their usual self. Meet and greets are important, I don't mind stopping by twice. During the M&G we will discuss daily routine, behaviors and habits, feeding, and any house-related things I should know. After that, we will confirm the booking and I will get a key or code for your home. I will never share a code with anyone and make sure your keys are always safe.

Information Margarita R. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know all about your pet! Let me know any important factors like health conditions or habits. I would love to know what the daily schedule looks like and how they act on a daily basis. Before a meet and greet it is important for me to know how the pet reacts to strangers so I can be prepared for anything.

A typical day

Currently,I am only doing cat sitting so I will make sure to provide playtime indoors. While we are at home they will always get a lot of attention and love. If your kitty loves catnip I can bring by catnip toys. Play with want toys. Daily brushing if your cat enjoys that. Lots and lots of scratchies and pets.

Cat care experience

I am focusing on cat sitting at the moment since I work full time at a cat clinic. I really love cats and dogs but I have recently become more of a cat person! I have been trained in cat’s body language and what symptoms to look out for if a cat is sick. I am able to recognize if an animal needs urgent care or primary care. Some examples are, possible urinary tract infections female cats, urinary blockages in male cats (emergency), and possible intoxication or blockages. I will not personally treat your kitty but I can most certainly be vigilant and take them to receive care per your authorization. I am also very patient and trained in cat friendly practices meaning I will create the most safest and comfortable environment for your kitty.

Maggie took great care of our kitty for one week of housesitting. She sent photos and kept in touch to let me know how things were going. Our kitty, who does not warm to many people would sleep on her lap - -so I know she has good vibes with kitties! I hope to use her again.

I highly recommend Margarita! She was super easy to communicate and coordinate with and took great care of our dog during the week we were away. She sent us daily updates with photos about how our dog was doing, which we loved receiving! Our dog seemed happy and well cared for when we returned home :) We have already booked her for another date!

Margarita was great from the beginning- communication, follow-through, plus her love for taking care of dogs. In particularly, I trusted her and as I was away from my puppy for the first time, she was extra thoughtful about checking in. I'd have her back anytime.
